This is Dedicated to a Very Nice Guy~AC

[MarkinPhx]

He's done a lot of great b things for the community in Phoenix and has a teen center just down the road from me. When Glen Campbell lived here the two apparently played a lot of golf together.
I have seen him at a couple of meetings. Nobody bothers him and if he shares you wouldn't know his fame. Very humbling in many ways.

I used to blast it in my car.

Right, driving doughnuts in the middle of the road, it’s amazing that any of us survived that decade

For sure! I would sing real loud then too.

I changed this post. I had posted a tune that made me despise AC, but I don't want it on SF.

Bet that few of you know that Alice Cooper "owns" the second "O" in the HOLLYWOOD sign, and dedicated his contribution in honor of Groucho Marx. He sponsored it in 1978, paying roughly $28,000 to have it refurbished. I lived quite near the sign at that time so I remember the sign's terrible state of disrepair and how fabulous it looked upon being restored.

Alice Cooper has a good name in Hollywood.

I took this photo from the back yard after the sign was redone. The land between our house and the sign is a finger of Griffith Park, and therefore will always remain unimproved. My mother lived there from 1970 until she passed in 2012. I had many good times in that home. ♥

Billion Dollar Babies was in my album collection back in my late teens. Thought he was great back then.

Wow, despise for a tune. Something to think on.

Well, if you're a big AC fan, then you know exactly which tune I'm referring to.

I am a big fan but don't have a clue as to the tune.

It has "Babies" in the title. It's on Killer. It disturbed me, when I heard it, and I decided AC was not an artist I wanted to listen to, ever again.

 

[Ruthanne]

I have listening to it many, many times but looked up the exact lyrics. I guess it's interpreted subjectively but someone wrote it and I'm not sure what it all really means. It's really vague to me:

Another one I really like!

Not a bad song...rather good in fact:

Not sure if you were replying to my post. That's not the tune I was referring to. The tune is on the album "Killer."

I just read the lyrics to the song you are referring to and I took it to be sarcasm. I don't believe AC is that type of person to deliberately mean something like that.
